"Since 2015, however, it shifted its focus to more accessible models with lower prices, ceding the top of the market to b rands like Sonos, Sennheiser, and Samsung. Now Yamaha is back in the flagship business, big time. The recently launched True X Surround 90A is also its most capable Dolby Atmos soundbar yet. It comes with a wireless subwoofer and a pair of fully wireless, portable surround speakers that can also be used individually or as a stereo pair when connected to your smartphone."
"Soundbars, by definition, are meant to be a simpler option than an A/V receiver for home theater sound. But Yamaha's approach to the True X Surround 90A is anything but straightforward. When you start the setup process, it becomes apparent that the True X Surround 90A is really just Yamaha's True X Bar 90A with a pair of True X Speaker 3As thrown in as an add-on, not an integrated component."
Yamaha's True X Surround 90A is a flagship Dolby Atmos soundbar package that includes a wireless subwoofer and two fully wireless True X Speaker 3A surround speakers that can function individually or as a stereo pair via Bluetooth. The system is the first soundbar to offer Auro-3D spatial processing. The package is priced at $3,500, making it one of the most expensive soundbar systems available. Setup is more complex than typical soundbars because the surrounds act as add-ons rather than integrated elements. Sound is powerful and suited to music and movies, but dialog clarity, lack of room correction, and missing Cast options are drawbacks.
